EXCLUSIVE: The distributor has picked up North American rights to the LGBT drama from Swiss feature directorial debutant Philippe Audi-Dor.

Wasp

Simon Haycock, Elly Condron and Hugo Bolton star in the tale of male lovers whose relationship and sexuality are tested when a female friend joins them at a family house in Provence.

Wasp premiered at the Boston LGBT Film Festival and went on to screen at Film Out San Diego.

“I wanted to turn the cliché of the straight-homo binary around,” said Audi-Dor, who directed from his screenplay.

“For once have a gay character be attracted to the opposite-sex, in order to properly open up a general discussion on the complexity of sexuality.”

Breaking Glass CEO Rich Wolff negotiated the deal with Camille Pages of Wide Management and plans a DVD and VOD release in August.
